RESUMO
Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors on Classroom Mobile Phone Dependence Syndrome (CMPDS) among college students,and to provide scientific basis for guiding college students to use mobile phones reasonably and healthily.Methods Stratified cluster sampling method was used.Students from different majors and different grades in Lanzhou University were included as the research objects.Classes were recognized as a unit in receiving basic field investigation in this questionnaire related study.Informed consent principles were followed and process of survey was anonymously carried out.Results The overall rate of CMPDS in college students was 8.7％,including ‘mild rate'as 6.6％ and ‘seriously mild rate'as 2.1％.No significant differences were found on genders or grades.Factors as shopping in the classroom shopping (OR=3.720),being bored on courses (OR=1.740),WiFi coverage (OR=1.787),time of practice in the classrooms (OR=1.514),and the total time of daily mobile phone use (OR=1.513) etc,appeared as risk factors related to CMPDS among the college students.However.shooting courseware (OR=0.579) appeared as a protective factor.Conclusions Rate of CMPDS was high in college students and we suggested to form a joint task force among the college authority,teachers and students to work on the related problems.Hopefully,the serious CMPDS condition will be minimized and both physical and mental health of the college students be improved.
